The Sanjeev Kapoor app is for people who love to experiment with food – both pro chefs as well as home cooks – and we believe it will make cooking fun.”
Celebrity Chef Sanjeev Kapoor said,
“The one thing I have always heard from people is that I have made cooking easy for them, I would say that with this new app Sanjeev Kapoor’s Recipes, I have made it fun as well. This app is like a well laid out buffet, there’s something for everyone. From recipes for everyday dining to festive specials or just a meal for two. There are even recipes that can help you whip up a meal with just whatever’s available in your fridge. The best part about this app is that logging in will win you points as well as exciting gifts. Need anything more?”

Speaking on the occasion, Neeraj Roy, MD and CEO of Hungama Digital Media Entertainment said,
“The collaboration with Indian culinary Guru and MasterChef Sanjeev Kapoor to create and launch the ‘Sanjeev Kapoor’s Recipes App’ is an exciting venture. With this app, we are proud to bring over 8500 classic recipes by Sanjeev Kapoor along with their detailed descriptions and pictures for references. Moreover, the launch of the app over the Windows platform guarantees increased visibility and access as the service will now be available on the three leading platforms.”
The app offers a number of unique features like “In Your Fridge” feature offers recipe options to users based on the ingredient that they have at any given moment. The good thing about the app is that, if users come across an interesting recipe on the app but do not have all the ingredients available, then they can use the ’Shopping List’ feature to send themselves the list via WhatsApp, email or SMS. The app also lets users access their favourite recipes even when offline by saving them in the ‘Recipe Box’ section.

The app also comes with selected recipes submitted by users & fans. Users can register on the app via their email IDs or log-in using their social media details and earn reward points for every activity (which includes submitting and sharing new recipes & posting comments) they perform on the app. They can later redeem these points against attractive kitchen appliances and restaurant vouchers from the Sanjeev Kapoor brand.
